2 Samuel 1:21-23
Contemporary English Version
2 Samuel 1:21-23
Contemporary English Version
21 Don't let dew or rain fall
on the hills of Gilboa.
Don't let its fields
grow offerings for God.[a]
There the warriors' shields
were smeared with mud,
and Saul's own shield
was left unpolished.[b]
22 The arrows of Jonathan struck,
and warriors died.
The sword of Saul cut
the enemy apart.
23 It was easy to love Saul
and Jonathan.
Together in life,
together in death,
they were faster than eagles
and stronger than lions.
